I think it's great that you guys are posting screen shots of your trades, but I really can't make head nor tail of them as they don't seem to show your entries - please correct me if I'm wrong.

Is there a reason for this? Could you show your entries in future so that those of us following along can get the hang of what you're showing us?

Thanks,
Paul.

Look at my charts. The rules have not changed. Same indicator.

Read the rules. What don't you understand? Look at the charts posted and apply the rules.

I understand the rules, but I've seen a few charts where the poster doesn't appear to have followed the rules (e.g. post 9191 above), which can be confusing.

Surely, if you're going to post a screenshot, showing your entries and stops would be a great help to those trying to follow along?

You posted the question of why aren't more people following along...perhaps this is a contributing factor? People are looking at the charts posted where it's claimed that they've "locked in 5 pips profit", yet the chart shows no such thing...it doesn't foster confidence.

Don't get me wrong, I think this is a great strategy, but the screenshots without entries and stops are what makes it confusing.

It's confusing. But if you did it by the same method and rules. It makes no sense to post the same thing twice, you would have already seen it on your chart

Evening PaulDV,
Your post could not be more accurately stated. I frequently check in to TooSlow's site, and I keep seeking what you so honestly stated in your post...a screenshot of the entries alone is not too much to ask. That request alone would assist all as we seek to truly understand the clearly stated trading rules.
Hope that you and I are not the only ones that are asking for such a simple request,
TX15

hope my EURUSD Chart can help you understand

I trade mainly at Frankfurt Open / London Open

the orange box is the trigger bar (price make a new high), i put my stop usually 10-15 pip above, if the wick more then 15/20 pip i will not take it.

at first entry (9:00 bar) you gain 5 pip but the price goes back make a new high, when the price goes 5 pip i will take half profit and move half of my position to BE+1 (im using the Holo trailing method), but you will get stop out +1 or -10 if you not move your stop.

at the second entry the wick is only 3 pip, so you can adjust your stoploss according you MM, or for me i always put atleast 10 pip with 0.5% risk
at your first candle you gain 8 pip, I will take 5 pip and move to BE+1 and usually i hold until it reach 20 pip / 2x my risk.

I agree, thank you.

There's really only 3 reasons for posting a chart:

  1. Seeking advice.
  2. Helping others.
  3. Showing off.

Not showing entries is of no help whatsoever for options 1 or 2, and casual passers by to the thread who are seeking corroboration of the rules by way of example screenshots, won't stop and subscribe because the screenshots simply don't show the entries and stops.
